Brown bear, Chichagof Island, Tongass National Forest, Alaska.
Just back from an awesome Alaska Bear and Whale Photo Tour! We visited one new place for me that had 15 spring brown bear cubs! I think we saw at least 10 of them. We also had two separate groups of bubble-net feeding humpbacks, breaching humpbacks, glaciers… I leave again in the morning, I sure hope this upcoming week is as good.
A sow with two spring cubs, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.
What’s up mom? It is interesting how even young cubs are very tuned in to their mom’s behavior.
Horned Puffin.
A flying puffin photographed during last month’s bear tour.
Double-crested cormorant, Seward, Alaska.
From another recent assignment – these guys like to dry their wings on the piling near the boat harbor.
Sea otter.
A sea otter in the ice of Prince William Sound, Chugach National Forest, Alaska earlier this summer.
Denali, Denali National Park, Alaska.
Flying over Denali last month.
Grizzly (Brown) bear cubs nursing, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.
This was last month during my Alaska Bear Photography Tour – these third summer cubs should really be heading out on their own by now, they are nearly as large as the mom! We are already down to a couple spots on next years tours.
Killer whale, Kenai Fjords National Park, Alaska.
Had an assignment for the National Park Service yesterday into Kenai Fjords National Park – always such a treat to spend time in our neighboring Park, haven’t spent enough time there these last couple of years!
